“Great drinks, great food, great service. Fantastic river views from patio. But for the LOVE OF GOD, invest in some tabletop fly swatter things. Our dinner was ruined by the flies. Those things cost about $5 on Amazon. Buy them. Or come up with something else. I’ve eaten at the state fair and had less issues with flies“

“I had lunch at Ziba’s yesterday and it was fantastic! The food was fresh and delicious and the team was super fun and friendly! I highly recommend stoping by.“

“Louisville staple! Delicious fish and fries. The fish is thick and not too much breading. Definitely get your moneys worth! Don’t forget to get the onions on your sandwich. So good! Look forward to it every year on Saturdays. Make sure you get there before they run out!!“

“WOW!!! Is all I can say here!!! Beyond the Sun Restaurant was truly a one-of-a-kind dining experience—the kind of place where ANYONE and EVERYONE can feel welcome! The food was DELICIOUS, and the service was absolutely TOP NOTCH!

We own a travel management business based in Atlanta, and we recently brought a client group of 25 guests to Louisville. Before our arrival, we connected with Tony, the manager, and explained exactly what we needed for our group. Tony was incredibly accommodating and worked with us to create an experience that stayed within our budget while still delivering an exceptional dining experience. He even provided vegan options for some members of the group.

Julian and Esthacio we AMAZING!!! They took EXCELLENT care of our group! They were attentive, organized, and moved quickly to gather everyone’s drink and meal orders. Despite having a group of 25, our food arrived in a timely manner, and there was never that feeling of being forgotten or overlooked.

And the group table setup was TOP TIER! Tony went above and beyond by creating a professional, personalized menu specifically for our group, which added such a thoughtful and special touch to our experience. Those are the kinds of details that make a group feel valued and make a travel experience memorable.

From the delicious food to the outstanding service and personalized attention, Beyond the Sun Restaurant DELIVERED!

We will DEFINITELY bring another group here the next time we visit Louisville. If you’re looking for great food, exceptional service, and a team that knows how to make guests feel special, Beyond the Sun is absolutely worth the visit!“

“They are a good influence for the little ones and older teen agers“

“Our grouper and fried fish and chips were excellent! Sides were also very good. This was our first visit and we look forward to becoming regulars!“

“Very clean and great service“

“Small portions and slow service. Food was cold. Would not go back“

“Great place 10 out of 10 I would try this place it's really good!“

“The location we went to is clean and the employees are polite and friendly. The food is always good but the portion of fish you get is pretty small for the price you pay. Even when we asked for a thick piece of fish it had more batter than fish.“

“I recently visited Moby Dick, and I was pleasantly surprised by how enjoyable the experience was. The place has a casual, no-frills atmosphere that lets the food take center stage. I ordered the kabob platter with rice and a side of their cucumber yogurt, and everything tasted fresh and well-prepared. The meat was juicy and perfectly seasoned, and the rice was fluffy with just the right amount of saffron flavor. The portions were generous without being overwhelming, and the meal felt hearty but clean.

Service was efficient and friendly, and the staff seemed genuinely invested in making sure everyone had what they needed. The only reason I’m holding back from a full five stars is that the dining area felt a little cramped during peak hours, and it could get a bit noisy. Still, the food more than made up for it. Moby Dick is a great spot when you’re in the mood for something flavorful and satisfying without breaking the bank.“

“Been going to Shark's ?for a while, I love everything about them especially the pan fried oysters and catfish nuggets ?. They have the best cook ? in Kentucky and the best hospitality....Jay and Leonard they are the best!!!! The food is super, the restaurant is very clean..“

“This place was wonderful! Yesterday was my first time coming to Grassa Gramma and my husband and I went for an early Valentine's date. The decor and atmosphere was breath taking! Just so gorgeous! Our waiter was kind and gave us the specials for the day. I ordered the baked seafood scampi and my husband ordered the cacio e pepe and we loved it! I even reheated my pasta today and it tastes just as delicious as it did yesterday!“

“My sister and I had lunch at Ramsi’s today. The crispy pedal salad is consistently delicious. I highly recommend it. The entrée that I ordered today was good but the chicken was overdone. Ramsi the owner came out to apologize and made it more than right for us . TOP NOTCH CLASS AND CUSTOMER SERVICE! Thanks Ramsi we will definitely be back.“

Highly recommend this place! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“I would recommend this place . I am from Florida and managed a seafood restaurant and this is by far some of the best tasting seafood I have ever ate. the shrimp boil was amazing, the cat fish had the best flavor and fried to a perfect golden brown crisps, the seafood tacos we good enough to slap your momma, shrimp and grits were full and taste with a Cajun twist, gator bites were perfectly cooked and the seafood Mac and cheese well let just say my dad doesn't eat mac and cheese at all and he said it was delicious... friendly staff clean atmosphere. will be coming back the next time we are in town.“

I found the meal to be excellent! Very good flavor and not overpowering and just the right amount of spice. Everyone agreed that their meals were very good and enjoyed the food. The portions are a good size for what you get and the prices are very reasonable. This is a busy place and I can see why.“

“This place is a 10/10! The atmosphere and staff were AMAZING!! We came to Louisville for the day to find my wedding dress. After I said yes to the dress we decided to try Mussel and Burger Bar!

We are coming back to Louisville for my bachelorette and we will definitely be visiting this place again! The seafood burger was also delicious!“

We topped that great meal off with complimentary slices of strawberry and chocolate cheesecakes for our anniversary! We will definitely be back!“

“just had the beechmont burger and cheese fries ordered online picked up ...absolutely one of the best burgers in the city flavorful grilled yummy burger everything fresh“

“Food was prepared so well!! All our dishes were nice portions, excellently prepared. Sangria was better than we had in Spain! Waitress was very busy but served us well The only big negative was the noise level. You could not hear folks at your table We would return considering the food was top notch! Yummy mushroom soup, crepe, meat croquettes, empanadas, etc.“

“We had 3 kids, and our waitress was fantastic! Very patient with the kids, and she recommended wonderful food!“

“Please note it's carryout only.

Clean, quiet, super friendly staff and fantastic food at good prices. Location on Southside can be a bit congested but you can sneak right out onto Strawberry for a light or a detour.

Will definitely be back. Pepper steak was awesome. Big menu. Recommended.“

“I am gluten intolerant and while the menu is not GF specific the waiter understood gluten intolerance and suggested dishes I would be comfortable with.“

“Great food at a reasonable price. The fish is delicious. Professional and courteous service.“

“I stopped by for dinner and was treated like royalty throughout my visit. There were a couple of items on their in-house dining menu that changed; however, I made the adjustments and placed my order. James was my waiter; he was very attentive, and the manager, Ethan, came out and greeted me as well. I must mention the young lady who greeted and seated me, though I forgot her name; she pulled out my chair, made sure my feet were positioned away from the table legs, and pushed the chair back in. I ordered the shrimp cocktail as an appetizer; the shrimp were huge, cleaned well, tasty, and the red sauce was outstanding. I requested the Greek salad from the menu but was informed it was no longer available. I ordered the heirloom tomato salad instead, which was not yet on the menu, though James informed me it was a new item. I then went with the Ora King salmon, which stated it came with roasted carrots, broccolini, and a maple bourbon glaze. I was informed that the carrots and broccolini no longer come with the meal; however, I could order the broccolini as a side, which I decided to do, and I was not disappointed in the taste or texture. The salmon came with a sweet potato puree and roasted cauliflower. The meal included complimentary bread and butter, which was nice and warm when it arrived. I enjoyed my meal and the service and would certainly visit again.“

“I cannot say enough Love This restaurant !! Fun with Band and Food is outstanding!!“

“Best Moby Dick restaurant that I've ever been to. Fish so good that I didn't even have to put any tartar sauce on it. It sits a little off the road, so I never noticed it driving on Preston highway, but once you turn off Preston, it's easy to find. The location looks new. Very clean. I'll be eating there for lunch at least once a week now. I got the fish box for two.“

“2026: Very tasty and clean. Nice restroom. Two piece fish dinner with fries was filling. Fresh fish 🐟 hot out of the fryer. The fries were ok, but my dad had onion 🧅 rings and they were excellent. Will be a regular at this location or the one in Middletown.“

“Excellent service, delicious menu, good prices!“

“The best Mediterranean omelette in town. Fabulous service EVERY TIME!!“

“I noticed they have more seafood in the bag than other places. customer service was good and they quick too.“
